Dude Wipes

This is a product that I recommend. They're wet wipes, like alcohol wipes, only without the alcohol, and they're made from plant fibers. They are labeled as flushable, but I wouldn't recommend flushing them unless you have a strong sewer system. I don't say this from experience because I've never tried flushing them, but I do know that not everything that is labeled as flushable is truly flushable.

There are several types available. I generally use the ones with Aloe Vera. They can be used for anything you might use wet wipes for, and they are soothing, unlike alcohol wipes. They come in large packets, although I usually order the ones that come with, I think it is 16 large packets, along with one small pocket-sized packet, and a bottle of deodorizer. I used these when I am camping because I can simply bury them and let them compost into the ground, and, although I rarely have to use them, I often carry a small packet of them in my pocket for long hikes, just in case.

For camping or on hikes, they are not only useful for bathroom necessities, since they pack up smaller than toilet paper and have the added cleaning function. More often, I'll use them to wipe sweat from my face or to wash my hands.

My wife won't try them because they're called "Dude Wipes," but there's no reason they couldn't be used by women as well. They're a whole lot better than alcohol wipes.

I have been using them for a few years now, and have them on subscription from Amazon.

Maybe I'll get some to carry in my car. I carry a roll of T.P. just in case, but have never needed to use it. The only time I've used wipes is during a colonoscopy prep, and I throw them in the trash. There are brands of toilet paper that are bad for your sewer and septic systems (here's looking at you, Charmin), so I don't trust anything that says "flushable." I did buy a case of baby wipes years ago as a recommended prepper thing, but I believe they have gone past their Use By Date and are probably dried out. (The money I've wasted.)
 
The only wet wipes product I buy are Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand Wipes. I keep a few in my handbag and in our vehicles for cleaning our hands after pumping gas or whatever.
I carry travel-sized hand sanitizer and paper towels (and disposable gloves) in my car & truck because I have to take my trash to drop-off points, and sometimes get funky stuff on them. I don't want that gunk getting on my steering wheel. Those Wet Naps always seem to dry out before they get used.

I don't like a bunch of junk in my car, but I do have the gloves in a storage compartment with the tire changing tools. I buy the wet wipes that are individually wrapped in the small plastic pouches and haven't had any dry out when carried for years.

I got all sorts of crap I'll never need in my Mazda in a carrier that hangs over the back seat and is accessible from the hatch.
 
I'm the type who uses packing tape to get small lint off of carpet. I'm not carrying a bunch of clutter in my car. :ROFLMAO: When I get a new registration sticker I practically use a laser level to make sure it's positioned correctly.
I live at the end of a long gravel right-of-way, and as often as not, the last leg of my long driveway loses the gravel and it's dirt & mud. I gave up on "fastidious" a long time ago.

I buy baby wipes 99% water for in the car travelling, that are good for underarm wipes if needed when it’s hot out ….wiping loo seats …
altho not antibacterial …. And for hands after eating ….and even wiping a spill off clothing …..
or in the car

We can buy toilet wipes but not allowed to flush ( at home ) cause we’ve got septic systems that get emptied once every 5 years and the wipes clog up the machinery at the recycling system where they extract the water ….thats used to water the golf course ( s)

In the very hot summer months I’ve been known to use wipes at dances …..
 
I never thought anything about Dude Wipes until recently. They are a personal hygiene item, but not as personal as I thought when I first saw them advertised. :ROFLMAO: Dude wipes sounded like for a specific chore for a specific male only body part. :sneaky:

Then I read Ken saying that women can use them also. I worried our fearless leader has gone woke and fallen victim to thinking a dude can become a real woman. However, I am puzzled why they are called dude wipes if their purpose is for wiping ones butt. :rolleyes: Women also partake in butt wiping, so why are these wipes dude specific?

I am assuming that they are treated with something that is prostrate friendly and perhaps even prevents prostate cancer, thus even a trans person, once identifying as a male, but now missing male sex defining parts, now identifying as a woman, can benefit from these magic wipes because they still have a dude prostate. :unsure:

I don't know why they decided to limit their target audience by the name of their product, but while they certainly can be used for butt wiping, toilet paper is a lot cheaper, although Dude Wipes can be used in such cases as the last step of the process, which I do when it seems necessary. However, they are excellent for outdoor purposes, not just for toilet issues, but for washing hands or other things. As I've mentioned, if I am planning a longish hike in the woods, I will take one of their small packs with me; generally, I won't need them because I'm not yet at that point, but if I didn't have them, I'd probably need them. Being compostable, they can simply be buried without feelings of guilt. There are different kinds, the differences being what is added, such as aloe vera, Shea butter, mint, menthol, or even coffee, but I won't pretend to understand that last one. When driving long distances in a rural area, I will sometimes bring a pack just in case, but my wife gets snippy if I leave them in her car. Other than the name, I know of no reason why any woman who currently uses alcohol wipes wouldn't find these to be better.

As for alcohol wipes, they are for sanitizing hands and surfaces. They are not generally a butt hygiene product except perhaps in cases of extreme emergency.
I have never thought they were a good idea, but nosing around people's bathrooms, I often find alcohol wipes near the toilet. Dude wipes can be used to clean more "surfaces" than alcohol wipes.

I don't keep wet wipes in my bathrooms because you never know when someone might flush them. I have enough plumbing nightmares already. And yes, I know some of them say "flushable" but I'm not going to press my luck.
 
AHEM AHEM! The Dude Wipes webpage makes it clear, their wipes are male specific. I never heard of them until Ken posted this most informative thread. At the time of discovery, this thread didn't appeal to me, but low and behold, I was at a friends and she was watching pro MENS bowling and they are now sponsored by Dude Wipes.

That really raised my suspicion, so I went to the Dude Wipes webpage. After wading thru a crock full of juvenile :poop: jokes and research about women's farts more toxic than men's, I decided the four guys that started this company, were not the Four Tops, but the Four Bottoms.

Hadn't these four Archimedean geniuses heard of having a spray bottle of water to dampen their TP? Or more caveman like, spit on the TP? But no these clever roomies with burrito dirty butts and/or chapped 🫏's, became millionaires by making baby wipes into a male specific product and the advertised butt use wasn't the same butt use as one might think.

The guy partners that started it, identify as "dudes" that had need for a wipe and while a great moisturized 💩 wipe was available, wasn't formulated to meet the male special needs. Being a former ranch girl, I know a man identifying or labeled as a dude, had a meaning less than a man of masculinity. Now that masculinity is considered toxic by some, I reasoned that these sanitizing wipes might wipe away toxicity that dude partners might encounter, thus dude wipes. Sissy wipes just doesn't have the same ring to it. :sneaky:

Here it is straight from the Dude Wipes webpage.

I rest my case!
